Frequently Asked Membership Questions

When you’re starting a new adventure, you’re sure to have lots of questions. We'll get many of them answered here, but if your's isn't in the list, please feel free to call us at 1-800-CLIMBUP.

How do I sign up for a membership?

Bring your photo ID and a form of payment (cash, check, Visa/MC) to the front desk and we’ll get you all set up!

Monthly memberships pay a prorated amount at sign up and are billed by calendar month every month thereafter. A credit card or checking account is required for all monthly billed memberships. Changes to your billing account can be requested here.

Yearly memberships are paid in full and expire 1 year from the date of sign up. This discounted rate is only available when paying for the year in full.

Who qualifies for a Family Membership?

Family memberships are for couples in a committed relationship and their dependent children. A maximum of 2 adults, over 25 years of age, are allowed on a family account and dependant children must be living at home. Roommates and adult siblings do not qualify for a family membership.

Family proof, showing that the adults on the membership reside at the same address, must be submitted by significant others in a committed relationship. Married couples and domestic partners do not need to provide proof of address. Proof of address includes: copies of drivers licenses, copies of bills or account statements, or lease agreements and can be submitted here

Can I bring a guest with my membership?

Yes! Each individual member may bring up to 2 guests per month and up to 6 guests per calendar year.

Family accounts have 8 guest passes per calendar year for all on the account to share. Maximim of 2 can be used per month. Guest passes reset every January 1 and passes do not accrue.

Can I freeze my membership if I won’t be using it?

Yes! To set up a freeze, please submit a request here. Requests are due 5 days in advance of the 1st!

Freezes must begin on the 1st of the month and requests are due 5 days in advance of the 1st. Freezes must last for a minimum of 1 month, and the $10 per month freeze fee will be billed in place of regular monthly dues for the duration of your freeze.

To unfreeze your membership, submit your request here. You can unfreeze today or the 1st of an upcoming month. When unfreezing mid-month, the prorated amount for the rest of that month will be invoiced to your account and billed at your next monthly billing.

Freezes for medical reasons receive the first 3 months of the freeze for free. After that, the $10 per month freeze fee kicks in if the account is still frozen. For more information on medical freezes, please contact membership@earthtreksclimbing.com

Freezes for military deployments are free for the duration of the deployment. Please contact membership@earthtreksclimbing.com to set up a freeze due to military deployment.

How do I cancel my membership?

Monthly memberships must be cancelled in writing via the online form here. Cancellation requests must be received no later than 5 days in advance of the 1st. Yearly and Prepaid memberships are non-refundable and cannot be cancelled early.

All cancellations take effect at the end of a calendar month; cancellations cannot be prorated to cancel mid-month. As of the 1st you are committed to that calendar month.

We respond to every cancellation request! If you email or submit a form and haven’t received confirmation within 3 business days, please be sure the email was sent to the correct address then contact us immediately.

What is my home gym and what does that mean?

Your home gym is either where you sign up for membership or the gym you visit most frequently. Since some of our locations have different membership rates, your home gym determines your monthly/yearly rate.

Life and job changes happen so we keep an eye on gym visits monthly, and your home gym may change if a different location is visited most often for 2-3 consecutive months. Don’t worry though! We’ll reach out to you via email if this is the case, so please be sure your contact information in our system is current.

Moving and want to proactively request a change? Email us at membership@earthtreksclimbing.com and let us know in advance! Please note: refunds will not be issued for retroactive changes.
